Lesson 010: Bloch intuition and notation hygiene
Focus
Assume every diagram must map to topology and basis gates—not textbook abstractions alone. Token Bloch intuition and notation hygiene:10 keeps neighbouring lessons differentiable.

- Guardrail: write one line about where classical cost dominated the timeline.
